Pathfinder Clean Energy (PACE), a UK-headquartered international developer of utility scale solar and battery storage projects, has commenced the development and EIA screening for its latest project – Goodrest BESS – a 49.5MW battery energy storage project near Birmingham.

Rob Denman, Managing Director at PACE said, “PACE UK is delighted to be advancing this project through the development process as the new labour government also provides positive support on clean energy development. 

As with all our projects, we will be seeking significant biodiversity gains to tackle the country’s combined challenges of climate change, energy security and species decline. The full planning application is expected to be submitted in Autumn 2024.”
